[Pooh]

Hey King Tee since this beat is kinda rockin

I'ma let you rap and get the suckers cold clockin

So yo loc', hear the beat I'm displayin

(Yep) But now - "listen to the gui-tar playin" {*E. Sermon*}



"listen to the guitar playin" {*E. Sermon*}

"One, two, three.."



[King Tee]

Yo, now if you're hip to me, then I guess you heard "Bass"

but I got another instrument to flaunt in your face

It's not a flute or a trumpet, don't beef cause you love it

A funky guitar rhythm that Pooh sampled and cut it

So for those who really know what dope stuff sounds like

If it sounds good, sounds funky, or sounds hype

Put your ear to this and let me know what you think

Yo Pooh, bust the guitar while I grab me a drink



"listen to the gui-tar playin" {*E. Sermon*}

"listen to the gui-tar playin" {*E. Sermon*}



[King Tee]

Now to many people this tune is like fazin

Get the crowd dancin with the funkiest persuasion

Hypnotizin suckers with some personal-fication

Get the crowd movin (c'mon) motivation

See I'm like a symbol to MC's I'm a father

No wait, I'm a lyricist, better yet a saga

Enough about the King cause you know I get far

I played with the "Bass" now I'm messin with the guitar

And the way that it sounds you say "Shucks!"

It can't be real how the player just plucks

on the strings, it rings yo, it's like the funkiest rhythm

Pooh brings the drums with the sticks to hit 'em

It's not ballet jazz punk rock or swing it's dope

rappin brought by the T apostrophe King

And if I was in school and this was an assignment

I wouldn't type it or write it I'd just rhyme it

Cause rhyme is what I like I got a metaphor background

A punk jumps up, I bust a verse, he sits back down

Huh - I wrote a epic, I hope you accept it

Fly stupid rhymes I composed and perfected

I'm down with some people that know what they're doin

Darryl and Bobcat and Dwayne and DJ Pooh

and Keith Cooley is cool see, I'm the coolest person

Somebody drop the guitar before I start cursin



"listen to the gui-tar playin" {*E. Sermon*}

"listen to the gui-tar playin" {*E. Sermon*}



[King Tee]

So, as it looks, the people like it

The funky guitar tune that we ignited

Pooh, I mean really, suckers be stumblin

when they hear the funky guitar strummin

You know frankly, I think this cut is kinda musical

just like my "Bass" song, but don't get them confused though

The guitar gets your mind in the funky kind of state, huh

and my bass makes the walls shake (yeah)

Suckers can't come close with what I got goin

what I be doin, what I be showin

How I be conquerin and how I keep rulin

What makes the King Tee stay so cool and

where I get my Fila's from, how I learned my slang

How could I afford such a big gold chain

and fly girlies tempt me when (?) wanna hit me

Why I drink brew til my body gets tipsy

To ask all the questions that I just spoke though

It's not magic or a hoax I'm just loco

I like bustin on the funky dope track

Smooth like T, mo' powerful than a gat

Now that you know what's goin around

(c'mon) here comes the funky breakdown



That's smooth man, that made me laugh at all these suckers man

You laughin too Pooh? (ye-ye-yeah, hahahahaha)



"listen to the gui-tar playin" {*E. Sermon*} (hahahahaha)

"listen to the gui-tar playin" {*E. Sermon*} (hahahahaha)



Yo Pooh, yo Pooh, break it down for a minute

Let me talk to the party

Now yo, me and Pooh is feelin real hot right now y'know

But we want y'all to know, that see, me and my crew

we from Compton, y'all heard about Compton?  Scratch Compton

(Compton!) Aight, see that's where we from (Compton!)
